I liked this book more and more as I read it. Funny and touching story about the joys and difficulties of blended families. One character is stereotypically "gifted" and the other is stereotypically "popular" but they find some common ground and end up defending and protecting each other. Like real siblings. Lots of courage and love, even in unexpected places.

This was a cute book. Yes the main characters read young but it was a sweet book that had me laughing out loud at parts.

I rarely read YA because somehow I can't connect with most of them but reading the synopsis of the book piqued my interest so I try to find it out there.
Best decision ever!
This book feels so light but actually deal with some serious issues. I usually a bit wary to books with alternating narrator but this works so well. The plot flows eloquently and smoothly and it gives me a glimpse to a world I don't really know (the mind of a gifted person).
Totally refreshing and impressing book! Looking forward to the author's next projects.

Told from the perspective of two very different teens who suddenly find themselves living in the same house and family when Stewart's dad moves in with Ashley's mom. The characters are a bit two-dimensional at first, intentionally on the author's part, I think, but develop depth over the course of the book.

Unexpectedly, this book was wonderful. A perfect mix of humor, emotional bits, and a beautiful message overall: we are all made of molecules.

Loved this book because it covered a lot of different social topics pre-teens and young teens are encountering in their social lives today.
